that is great

that is great

woman speakers?
September 6, 2011 11:09 am

They need a woman (obviously older/mother/wife) to speak to them also. There is currently a pre-dating class for boys and for girls and the boys had not only a man teaching them but in addition some classes were given by a woman. The result was they were very appreciating hearing from a woman.

Perfect opprtunity to tell these boys that there is other criteria for picking a mate then having her be a size 2! Their priorities are all out of wack and they are influenced by peer pressure as well.

I lookes at this b4 and dnt notice n e thing eye catching so left the page..now I looked again and was abt to skip and realized,hey that’s in pittsburgh!!!boy has that place changed!that building had not been around for long….ar al least when I was there……
N e way this program looks pretty good…but maybe thy should allow more ppl to join and privide choices of families to stay by…u know pittsburgh ia kinda random and many pl don’t know ppl in pgh other than the main rabbis…….much hatzlacha!!

And to #5—i loves ur comment

you obviously dont know what chassidus is

its not just a farbengen with a lebidikeh niggun, a couple of lechaims and some dancing

chassidus is very deep and if you learnt some you might change your mind set

Excellent Toychen...

…but why are his eyes closed and/or looking away from the camera for a major proportion of the time?

Is this the Manness Friedman I know? The chosid, the pnimi,. the oyved? Or just plain Manness the maskil, clinically analyzing what chassiduss should be.

Where is the: I was there, am there, will always be there?
It is almost as if he is peaking about a theoretical concept, relevant to others.

So organize it. Get together with your friends and contact Rabbi Friedman and others who you think would be good and make it happen.

not only can boys use this, they NEED IT!
September 5, 2011 10:47 pm

in girls seminary, these subjects are discussed around the clock! By boys they don;t discuss this except for in chosson classes, and thats not enough!

They do
September 5, 2011 10:29 pm

It’s called Bais Chana

This is for the girls. So girls will have a larger choice of bochurim who can be good husbands and parents.
